Can this be sprayed around sweet corn or will it kill it?

I have not had a need here in the NW. Being a food plant I would be hesitant to use it near the corn. Perhaps spraying weeds in late fall after corn is harvested and with plenty of time between spaying and planting in the spring to decrease chance of exposure to the corn....

Unless your corn is growing in briars and poison ivy...no. This is powerful stuff meant for broadleaf, woody plants and brush and leaves grasses mostly alone. Even winddrift could kill small trees if not careful. It's also good for "painting" on tree stumps to keep them from sprouting. Use 41% glyphosate for grasses.

One word, yes. It is a heavy duty poison and it will kill any plant it touches. I watered down and sprayed on weeds that were in between rock. Be careful of drift from flowing water or overspray onto other plants.

Yes. Be very careful NOT to get it on any other plant life you do not want to kill.

It DOES kill bushes. When you mix it, just spray it on the BUSH. It will kill it dead, dead, dead. I did it to a honeysuckle vine that was massive. It is no more. Hooray!!!!

As far as I know, as long as it is applied as directed and is absorbed by the plant, it will kill any insect that feeds on that plant. I bought it to take care of a infestation of bugs which were covering and killing some sago palms (cycads) in my yard. The plants are still alive and the bugs are dead.

This vinegar will kill any plant material it comes into contact with which is likely why they don't recommend spraying it. Our arborist recommended using a paint bush so we'd have better control of where it ended up.

I wish I could provide a good answer to your question but I really don't know much you should dilute it. I'd suggest you contact your local County or State Agricultural Extension Agent to determine the correct mix of this herbicide & water to spray on a specific plant. I used it full strength (no dilution) when I applied it to the Chinese Tallow trees I was trying to kill, and from the results I've seen in a very short time, I can say it's a VERY STRONG & effective herbicide. It's so strong that it might have been effective (in my case) if I'd diluted it 50-50 water & herbicide. Regardless of how much it's diluted, you'll need to use extra care to avoid having it contact ANY nearby vegetation that you don't want to kill. Wish I could have been more helpful.

I used a tripod sprinkler stand - about 3 ft tall and attached this head to it. Actually, it worked so well that I purchased another head for my other stand. With these two working in tandem, I had no problem at all watering my sweet corn and getting good coverage. BTW, the sweet corn was excellent!

Considering that pesticide is meant to kill all insects on plants there is a high chance it will

Don't grind corn that isn't completely dry! It will gum up the motor and it can't be repaired if that happens.

I have used this on soil around delicate plants and it does not seem to effect them. This is a sollution meant to kill fungus gnat larvae and really serves no other purpose. I read through the information on the container and it says nothing with regard to dangers of using around fruits and vegetables. I do use this indoors.

Yes, that is what I currently use it on. I set the temperature quite high and when the popping starts to slow alot, I remove it to prevent burning the corn.

JJ, Smilax is a genus that contains over 300 subspecies so its hard to say with any certainty that Trimec will kill every one found around the globe. But I've used it for at least a couple that were growing on some hardwoods in my back yard. No doubt it worked well and since the smilax I've seen is definitely a broadleaf, the result was fully expected. I say that because in my experience, Trimec will kill any broadleaf its sprayed on good or bad. With that being said, I believe it would work fine on the species you have as well.

I used it on leaf miners because they are inside the leaf and a surface spray wouldn't kill them. Haven't tried it on scale, but it should work because it puts something in the tree sap that kills the bugs. We're eating the lemons and oranges from the trees, and so far (six months) have encountered no problems.

Barbara, I just read through the label and dollarweed is listed so it appears that Trimec will indeed kill it! Cheers, Jonathan Customer Care U-Spray Bugspray

It depends. It will kill a vegetable plant just like a weed, if you get any on the foliage. There are no remaining harmful chemicals lingering after use, like RoundUp.

If you get in on grass or your floweres it will kill them. I've used it on areas that are strictly weeds for the most part or not close to other vegetation I don't want to kill.
